THOUSANDS OF OLD BOOKS 



Have accumulated in the libraries of our public institutions, and those of prominent public men, 

 both in duplicate and otherwise They cost them nothing and oft-times are valued accordingly. 

 They are, however, both valued and "desired by specialists aad parties interested. Perhaps you 

 or your friends may ha%'e some of the identical volumes which I desire, crowding library shelves 

 or stowed away in garrets, doing nobody any good ; but had I them I would not only appreciate 

 them but might' know of a dozen others who would do likewise. Look over my list of wants and 

 and if you have anything I desire or others write ni'^. stating what you wish in exchange. and per- 

 haps we can arrange an exchange which will be advantageous to each. I will exchange for single 

 volumes— but the larger the exchange the better.
